Some residents of Roxborough, Tobago, are expressing outrage after sections of Prince Bay were reportedly blocked off by individuals claiming ownership of the area.

Several villagers told the Express the bay has been used by fishermen and boat owners for more than 50 years as a launching and docking site, and they believe they are now being unfairly denied access to a location that has long served the community.

According to the residents, the restrictions have disrupted their daily activities and livelihoods, and they insisted that the area has historically been accessible to the public. They are now calling on the relevant authorities to intervene and clarify the legal status of the land.
